Two 1962 Rancheros One With 289 4 Spd. One With 429 V-8 on 2040-cars
Tullahoma, Tennessee, United States
|
Two 1962 Falcon Rancheros Black car has a 289 v-8 with a 4 spd. trans and 9" rear. Engine runs and trans. shifted fine when I drove car here several years ago. Brakes were bad then and still are. The 289 ran well with no unusual noises or knocks. It has old finned aluminum Edelbrock valve covers, aluminum Edelbrock intake and carb. It also has headers and newer dual exhaust with turbo mufflers. The rear quarters are solid as are the rocker panels and all around tailgate area. The shock towers and core support are solid also. It will need floors all around. I also have with this car a nice front fender (blasted and coated) and a nice door (blasted and coated) to replace the damaged ones on the car. I also have a partial rear floor section and a partial front inner fender panel with battery cove and box of you wish to use them. The red and silver car is a body and tube steel frame only. It has a tube steel frame welded in place to build a gasser/ prostreet or??(nicely done). This car comes with a 1969 429 Ford v-8 engine. (apart minus oil pan and intake).The body shows evidence of earlier rust repair with metal welded in place There are no floors for this car. Body work on outside looks presentable. It includes fenders, doors, hood and bumpers. Also included with this package is a new Crites fiberglass teardrop style hood and fiberglass front bumper. A new fiberglass shifter cover is also with the car. The windshield and back window are good on the red car but the windshield is bad on the black car but the back window is good. We have 2 extra grilles, extra headlight rings and 2 boxes of misc. parts. Included also is a hard to find Ranchero fuel tank (blasted and coated but has some pin holes) Also included is a pair if nice 64 or 65 black Mustang bucket seats. Bring a big truck and take it all for one price!! I also have Titles for both cars. It seems what may be a little rough on one car is good on the other so one pretty nice car can be built out of the pair with extra stuff left over to sell. I will cooperate in any way I can and assist somewhat in loading all but you will need to provide the heavy labor. Both cars need total restoration and are being sold as is where is with no warrantys. A $500.00 non refundable deposit will be required within 24 hours of close of auction. The balance due before or when picking up cars. If payment is made with check or money order of any type sufficient time will be required for clearing before picking up vehicles. A direct bank transfer is the best way |

VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years
Wed, 18 Sep 2013This really was a matter of when, rather than if. Volkswagen will apparently be the first manufacturer to phase out naturally aspirated engines in favor of turbocharging its full slate. VW is kind of responsible for ushering in this push towards small-displacement, turbocharged engines that's taken the industry by storm. When it dropped its direct-injection, 2.0-liter turbo in the 2005 GTI it demonstrated that strapping an iron long to an engine can enhance the powertrain as a whole. VW made fuel economy gains, while also giving a linear, non-laggy turbo experience that it has replicated, model-after-model, to this day.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Volkswagen's executive Vice President of Group Quality, Marc Trahan, told the paper that, "We only have one normally aspirated gas engine, and when we go to the next generation vehicle that it's in, it will be replaced. So three, four years maximum."
Really, it's hard to get teary-eyed about either of these engines going away. VW has access to smaller powerplants that could easily match the performance of the 2.5 five-cylinder and the 3.6 V6, while gobbling up less fuel and providing a better driving experience. What we are sad about is that a similar statement about the extinction of NA engines came from the Vice President of Powertrain Engineering at Ford, Joe Bakaj. We'd certainly get teary-eyed over a world without Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8.
Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013
The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.
Shelby to auction 2012 GT350 No. 1 in Vegas
Thu, 19 Sep 2013With Shelby preparing to wind down production of its brutal GT350, a 624-horsepower Mustang that's meant to go up against the Roush Stage 3 in the world of tuned Ford ponycars, the Las Vegas-based tuner is looking to give back to one lucky customer. It'll auction off the very first GT350 ever produced, at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, a three-day event that runs from September 26 through September 28.
The GT350 is a monster, with a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 that's been tuned well past 600 horsepower in a time when Ford's own Shelby-branded GT500 barely reached 550 horsepower. The GT350 is much louder than Ford's effort, too, both visually and audibly. The wide body look isn't what we'd call conventional, but on a car that sounds and goes like this, something extreme is needed. According to Shelby American's vice president of production, Gary Davis, "Carroll was very excited about the new wide body option, so that was included on this car. It's the first 2012 GT350 serial number from our anniversary year. It is a very special car." Wilwood brakes, a massaged suspension, and some very fat, sticky tires add to the Shelby experience.
This particular GT350 will be lot number 750, and will cross the Barrett-Jackson stage on Sunday, September 28.
